Wetland Delineation, Assessment & Environmental Resource Permitting

Wetland delineation and permitting in Florida can be a complex process, influenced by a patchwork of federal, state, and local regulations. Wetlands are among the most valuable ecosystems on the landscape, supporting biodiversity and delivering essential services such as wildlife habitat, flood attenuation, erosion control, water purification, and carbon storage. Because of their ecological importance and regulatory protections, accurately identifying and delineating wetlands is a key step in responsible land use planning. Whether you’re evaluating a small residential parcel or a large-scale commercial, utility, or energy development, understanding where wetlands occur on your site is essential for determining project feasibility.

Our team conducts wetland delineations to assess usable acreage and identify potential regulatory constraints early in the planning process. Developing within wetlands can trigger extensive permitting requirements, mitigation costs, and delays, while avoiding wetlands altogether often streamlines approvals and reduces expenses. Knowing the precise boundaries of wetlands helps landowners, developers, and agencies make informed decisions about property acquisition, design, and permitting.

Our staff includes certified Professional Wetland Scientists with extensive experience interpreting wetland regulations and guidance at the federal, state, and local levels. We provide accurate, defensible delineations that help our clients balance project goals with regulatory compliance and environmental stewardship.
